Fun on the Farm – Poulton-le-Fylde wedding

Poulton-le-Fylde wedding story.

Myself and Tom have known each other for years and we’ve always had mutual friends. Our paths have crossed again and again and then Tom asked me on a date in 2011 and the rest as they say is history!

We have so many thoughts and special memories that stand out from the day. For Tom, meeting his family and friends in the local pub ‘the thatched’ was a great touch and having their pic taken in the new micro brewery – a pub with tremendous heritage. The amazing scene of turning up at the marquee at the family farm with the children laughing and playing at the different stalls such as hook a duck and a coconut shy, the hay bails made into bride and groom, and how beautiful the marquee looked when decorated by the very talented girls from Willows Florist. It was a perfect Summers day which went hand in hand with our bbq themed meal which was prepared by the fabulous Jacks Bistro, St Anne’s.

Tom and the best men looked fab in the suits and the pictures i’ve seen so far have done them real justice!
For me, Julie, seeing our son Freddie come downstairs with my Mum in his little outfit and the way he was in church, it wasn’t just about the two of us getting married, the day was about the 3 of us becoming a family.

Walking down the isle in my Maggie Sottero dress feeling like princess and seeing everybody’s head turn was a feeling I will never forget- I was overwhelmed to see all those faces there for us. Tom and I were both made up with how everything came together and how the day was a reflection of us and our values. And to top it off all these magical moments were captured by our creative photographer Wes Simpson. Booking a photographer was one of the top decisions we had to make when planning the wedding. Wes came recommended by my sister in law Gina who is an international published model. I was researching photographers for weeks and just couldn’t seem to find a fit until Gina said out the blue “I’ve met this photographer called Wes, his work is something different, you have got to check him out” It’s Gina’s job to be photographed so for her to recommend a single photographer form all the photographers she meets, well I was intrigued to say the least.

What we found unique about Wes’s style of photography was how he captured moments that other conventional photographers wouldn’t. Wes is a big guy, with a big attitude for life and he just get’s it.
For me the most important thing is to be able to look back in years to come and relive our wonderful day, and that’s what Wes has achieved for us with his stunning images and relaxed approach that comes from his paladin and advise. Any future brides reading this, listen to Wes at the planning meeting, he know’s his stuff and his help/suggestions really helped me fell relaxed in the knowledge that my day would run how I wanted.

I’ve only seen the teaser pics so far that Wes has been posting on FaceBook, I loved them so much that I was messaging him from the airport on route to my honeymoon for more previews. I can’t wait to see the finished album!

Julie Adams – happy bride.
